Teaching Dissent and Building Movements with Popular Education

This month, we are exploring the connection between popular education and movement building. Without radical education, there can be no radical practice.

Stand with Brazilian Families Still Struggling for Justice

This past January 25th marked three years since the tragedy of the Brumadinho dam collapse in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Millions of cubic meters of toxic mining sludge were released, killing 272 people, burying entire communities, and poisoning the Paraopeba and São Francisco Rivers. It has also been six years since the Mariana dam disaster in the same region, which also devastated communities and the environment.

Together with our partner the Movement of People Affected by Dams, we are asking for your solidarity to bring long-overdue justice to those impacted by the Brumadinho and Mariana disasters and to help put a stop to ongoing corporate impunity and government complicity in these and other cases.
